During the Big Shark Shout Out Perth Scuba and divers around the world rally to protect sharks before it’s too late. Together, we have a powerful, collective voice that can change policies affecting the main threats to sharks – overfishing, bycatch and finning.

Why are we worried about sharks? Nearly one out of five shark species is threatened with extinction. Sharks are irreplaceable – they are vital to the health and balance of our ocean environments. Time is running out for sharks and we need to act now!

Make a difference during the Big Shark Shout Out:

Sign the Shark Petitions

By adding your signature, divers can pressure leaders to close shark finning loopholes and provide greater trade protections for vulnerable shark species. Two important petitions need your voice this October: Shark Alliance’s Unfinished Business and Project AWARE’s Give Sharks a Chance. Please sign them both.

Better yet, run your own signature drive by collecting signatures on Facebook with the Take Action Facebook app or adding the shark petition widget to your website this October.
